Automated EEG-Based Diagnosis of Neurological Disorders: Inventing the Future of Neurology



Inventing the Future of Neurology based on the authors’ groundbreaking research, this book presents a research ideology, a novel multi-paradigm methodology, and advanced computational models for the automated EEG-based diagnosis of neurological disorders. It is based on the ingenious integration of three different computing technologies and problem-solving paradigms: neural networks, wavelets, and chaos theory. The book also includes three introductory chapters that familiarize the readers with these three distinct paradigms.
After extensive research and the discovery of relevant mathematical markers, the authors present a methodology for epilepsy diagnosis and seizure detection that offers an exceptional accuracy rate of 96 percent.
The technology presented in the book has the potential to impact and transform neurology practice in a significant way. The book also includes some preliminary results towards EEG-based diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. The methodology presented in the book is especially versatile and can be adapted and applied for the diagnosis of other brain disorders. The senior author is currently extending the new technology to diagnosis of ADHD and autism. A second contribution made by the book is its presentation and advancement of Spiking Neural Networks as the seminal foundation of a more realistic and plausible third generation neural network
